Jeff Ament Builds Skateparks in Montana | Bozeman News
Description
Jeff Ament, Pearl Jam’s bassist, is turning Montana into a skateboarding paradise—one town at a time. The latest gem? A brand-new skatepark in Philipsburg, built through a powerhouse collaboration between Ament’s Montana Pool Service, the Montana Skatepark Association, and Evergreen Skateparks. With over fifty parks already built across the state, this project is pure passion: Ament matches funds with local organizers to bring world-class facilities to small towns, creating lifelong fun for kids and adults alike. The grand opening featured free demos, lunch, and community vibes, with Ament sharing how skateboarding’s rush and freedom keep you alive. More parks are on the way in Lame Deer, Elmo, Hot Springs, and beyond—with Miles City, Anaconda, and Fort Benton in the pipeline. Open daily, the Philipsburg park welcomes skaters, bikers, and scooter riders, with free clinics and even a splash pad planned. Ament’s message? Show up, skate, and help keep these spaces thriving.
